About this audiobook
Some wounds don’t show up on a flight recorder.
When a seasoned British Airways captain experiences forty-five unexplained seconds of behavioral anomaly mid-flight, he’s grounded — and suddenly sitting across a conference table from the one person he never expected to face again. The woman he left standing in a Clerkenwell doorway twelve years ago, holding nothing but an apology she never asked for.
She’s the investigator. He’s the incident. And the truth buried inside those forty-five seconds could end his career, expose a decade-old military cover-up, and unravel every careful wall they’ve both spent years constructing.
Set against the grey-lit streets and rain-threaded riverbanks of London, this is a story about the things we bury to keep moving — and the terrifying grace of finally setting them down.
Atmospheric, emotionally precise, and achingly romantic, this novel asks whether the bravest act isn’t flying into danger, but letting someone see exactly where you broke.
